Journal of a journey through life, true love and lessons learned along the way.
I just had the pleasure of finishing David Goggins book, Can't Hurt Me. This mans journey is one I won't ever forget and will likely follow from this day forward. David's journey while unconventional will make you question your own intentions and the efforts behind them. There were so many quotable quotes throughout this book... Continue Reading →
Today I visited Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp. It is the "Psychic Capital of the World". This would be both my second visit to Cassadaga and my second reading ever. I have always been leary of "messing" with this side of the universe. I absolutely do believe in psychics, mediums and healers but believed I was better... Continue Reading →

Resilience is a measure of how much you want something and how much you are willing, and able, to overcome obstacles to get it. It has to do with your emotional strength. As defined by me...

Silence is the complete absence of sound. Wow, I just read those words and am left with reverberations through my brain. I have never been one that liked silence much. In the car I always have the music on, at home the TV is going (even at bedtime until I fall asleep) and while I... Continue Reading →

I ask you these questions because in life there are times you are encouraged to show your potential and then there are those times that you... Continue Reading →
Medication or Meditation...that is the question. Or is it? It is astonishing to me how many people have reached out to me after posting "The Smiling Faces of Depression" and to date the "mental health" tags in my blogs have received far more views than any other subject matter. It is clear that I have... Continue Reading →
I had a great conversation with my Aunt this week, I asked her what she thought of the last few blogs that were born out of my reactions to the books I am currently reading and she said "I didn't love them". I wasn't surprised because quite frankly, neither did I. Her point was that... Continue Reading →
Let's continue where we left off with David Goggins and his book "Can't Hurt Me". Today's chapter was on Hell Week Navy Seal training. We have all heard the rumors and maybe some of you reading have actually been through or know someone who has succeeded Hell Week, what an honor. David proves the theory... Continue Reading →
